For starters, You Quiz on the Block is a South Korean variety show where comedians Yoo Jae-suk and Jo Se-ho stroll into the everyday lives of ordinary people to chat with them and surprise them with quizzes. This talk and quiz show program aims to give a refreshing and uplifting take on their day.
Recently, the super boy band was invited for an appearance on the show for a BTS Special episode. In the episode, the seven-piece global idol group was interviewed and quizzed by the hosts.

However, fans noticed that Jin had a significantly lesser screen time compared to the other members. This prompted several of them to voice out their complaints on the show’s website. But here comes the plot twist: it was Jin himself who requested for his parts to be removed!
“When I thought back on the things I’d said on ‘You Quiz [on the Block],’ I felt like I’d only talked about depressing things, so I asked them to edit it out…”
Prior to this, Jin had also candidly opened up about his battle against depression.
“I don’t normally want to share it (sad feelings) with my actions, but I think it’s okay to show it as music,” he said. He had also expressed that, “What and who I am today is because of my fans, the ARMYs, and they are the reason I am able to do more music. Seeing how lots of people love me performing on stage and at the same time, with the thought of making them happy, I can find my happiness with them. That’s the reason why I want to perform even more.”
After Jin’s clarification, fans have decided to delete their comments on the show’s website.
